Many thanks Pat. I am happy to delete them all now.

I am constantly running our of drive space and find I have some 120 GB of old Vectorworks Landscape versions and all their relevant files such as items, plants etc. I don't have the uninstall software for the previous versions so can I just highlight everything and delete it

Hi All. I have re-entered the DXF file and the survey data and its has sorted it out. Set the stake within the model and by sending it to surface it shows the relevant height. All Good. Thanks for your input. Ken Kirtland-1.3.vwx

Hi Pat. Good of you to reply. The pathway slope is on Hardscape with a slope of 1:60 over a length of 6151mm. I need to check the specific height at 2000mm in order for me to make sure my design matches. I have tried the Stake and positioned it on the slope but it doesn't provide anything. Ken

I have to up date a paving slope and need to find out the different heights along a sloping pathway. I must have missed the tool that I can simply click within the slope and it will tell me the precise height at that point.

Hi. Can anyone tell me if there is a workaround to set plant images on the surface of Hardscape. I have to go to the front view of a border image and set each plant to the surface when I have a sloped border like my current one. I am told this cannot be done within Landscape so I would appreciate it if there is an answer. Many thanks ken@firstgardendesign.co.uk

Many thanks drelARCH. I went through all the door and window setting and found the glazing was somehow reset. Went through and re-set glazing to Clear with render. All good now. Thanks

Many thanks Taproot. Following your ideas all good. Thanks

Just updated to latest mac update 10.15.4 and find all my doors and widows have a solid pane instead of glazed. Can someone help get them back to glazed

Can anyone help me create some worksheets in my designs I have walls – Pergolas – Decking and patios and if I open preformatted Report there is nothing with a record that corresponds with the different elements I have built. If I try to create a Custom report I am at a total loss. I’ve tried following Vectorworks Landmark videos, PDF’s and everything in between but still I am out in the cold. Can someone give me a simple instruction 1 – 2 – 3 steps so a greenhorn like me can follow? I am trying to put together a real true presentation together so contractors can quote on. My walls are mainly for raised beds in different sizes, my decks have foundation, weed membranes, joists, Noggins and posts, and my patios have foundation, mortar bed and paving to name but a few. So, apart from areas and sizes I need costs per item so I can keep an eye on a client’s budget throughout the design concept stage. I would appreciate some help. Many thanks KenH First Garden Design

Many thanks Pat. I'll follow your logic. I did try the shell solid but no deal. Then I can work out how to send it up on its point. Kind regards Ken

I need to sculpture a die and stand it on its point. Its needs to be hollow as I need a light inside can any one help

Hi. Here are 2 images. One with paving stabs that need duplicating. The second is one that I have moved away from the lawn with the second near it. Both now are wireframe and to get one that has render I have to draw and set the render again.
